Description

Apple 21.5″ iMac measures at just 5 mm at its edges, which is 40% less volume than previous 2011 iMac. The 21.5″ Display features LED backlighting for vibrant and accurate color. With in-plane switching (IPS) technology, the iMac has a wide 178° viewing angle. The screen has a 16:9 aspect ratio and Full HD 1920 x 1080 native resolution, supported by integrated Intel HD Graphics 6000.

For ports, the iMac has dual Thunderbolt 2 ports (which also double as Mini DisplayPorts) and four USB 3.0 ports. You’ll be able to connect with various compatible components. If you would rather go wireless with your peripherals, you can use Bluetooth 4.0 technology where compatible.

Thin Design

The iMac maintains its 5mm profile, which is up to 40 percent less volume than the 2011 iMac. Using an advanced welding method called friction-stir welding, Apple was able to join the front and the back of the iMac together directly.

21.5″ IPS Display

Whether your iMac is in your studio, living room, or kitchen, the display is the focal point. With a 1920 x 1080 screen resolution and a 16:9 aspect ratio, you’ll be able to playback Full HD 1080p content natively. The IPS panel allows for wider viewing angles so more people can enjoy the display without having to crowd around it. With integrated Intel HD Graphics 6000, the iMac delivers Full HD visual effects and 3D graphics. The iMac simultaneously supports full native resolution on the built-in display and up to a 3840 x 2160 resolution on an external display.

5th-Gen Broadwell Intel Core i5 Dual-Core Performance

The iMac houses a 5th-Gen Broadwell Intel Core i5 Dual-Core processor. Its quad core can reach the speed of 1.6 GHz. It can also be overclocked up to 2.7 GHz, thanks to Intel Turbo Boost 2.0 technology. The 5th-gen Broadwell Intel processor uses low voltage for better energy efficiency while still providing fast performance. Combined with 8GB of 1867 MHz LPDDR3 onboard RAM, the iMac allows you to multitask quickly and efficiently.

Retina 5K display: The world's highest resolution all-in-one display with a stunning 14.7 million pixels, 7 times more pixels than an HD display, means the peak of the mountain appears in your living room. The 5K Retina display guarantees you will not detect any pixels, so images appear crystal clear while text is so sharp you'll be believe you're reading from a printed page. Your videos and photo will benefit from 25 per cent more colours for a lifelike show on the screen.

The situation of ports remains frustratingly unaltered, in any case. As a matter of fact this is so the iMac can keep up its continuous lines and svelte figure, yet it ameans you'll need to aggravate your whole work area by turning the iMac 45-degrees to achieve any of the four USB ports, two Thunderbolt 2 connectors, 3.5mm sound jack or SD card peruser. Apple doesn't supply any expansion links for USB gadgets and the supplied remote Magic Keyboard does not accompany any connectors.
